Answer:

72°

Explanation:

In order to find the value of the central angle, you must first determine what percentage of the plate was broken.

Since 7 out of the total 35 inches of circumference were broken, you divide 7 by 35 (
7/35) and get 0.2, which means 20% of the plate is broken.

Now, knowing that a circle consists of 360°, you need to find 20% of 360.

Use the formula
(percent)/(100) =(part)/(whole) .


(20)/(100)=(x)/(360)

360 x 20 = 7200

7200 ÷ 100 = 72

x = 72

So, the central angle is 72°.

Have a nice day ^-^
